Ob Polyclonal Antibody, 100ul[BT-AP12166] Cell fragmentation and collection ST6GALNAC2 belongs to a familyThis gene encodes a protein that is secreted by white adipocytes, and which plays a major role in the regulation of body weight. This protein, which acts through the leptin receptor, functions as part of a signaling pathway that can inhibit food intake and or regulate energy expenditure to maintain constancy of the adipose mass. This protein also has several endocrine functions, and is involved in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses,
